I gotta cast my vote in favor of repairing the 6 volt Generator. 1) With a new armature and since youre in there anyway, its fairly cheap to replace any needed brushes or bushings WHEREY YOU SHOULD GET YEARS OF TROUBLE FREE PERFORMANCE privided you keep the brush hold down spring assemblys clean n free. 2) That way you dont have to buy or convert to all that 12 volt stuff and change polarity and have that ugly out of place looking dorky alternator n jury rigged brackets etc etc. On that M especially, I would use 00 gauge Battery n Starter n Ground cables and have the highest rated heavy duty battery that will physically fit into the space. Thats my story n Im stickin to it lol Take care n God Bless yall John T
